DESCRIPTION: A Jorgen Jensen Denmark sterling silver necklace with pewter pendant. The pendant is designed with a pair of green gemstone cabochons. Jorgen Jensen (1895 - 1966) was the second son of Georg Jensen and also a silversmith. He trained with the German goldsmith Leonhard Ebert and studied at the City School of Arts and Crafts in Munich. He then trained at Georg Jensen silversmith and was a member of the company from 1917 to 1923. Subsequently, until 1936, he had his own workshop in Stockholm but joined Georg Jensen in 1936 and worked there as a silversmith until 1962. He designed jewelry and hollowware and his pieces show an evolution from early forms reminiscent of Johan Rohde to straighter lines and less ornamentation more closely resembling the work of Sigvaard Bernadotte. His work has been exhibited widely in Europe and North America. The necklace is marked "Sterling". The pendant is signed "Jorgen Jensen Denmark" and numbered 230 B.
